The Zimbabwe cricket team toured Pakistan from 19 to 31 May 2015.[1] The tour consisted of three One Day International (ODI) and two Twenty20 International (T20I) matches, all played at Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore. It was the first tour of Pakistan by a Test-playing nation since the attack on the Sri Lankan cricket team in Lahore in 2009.[1] Pakistan won the T20I series 2–0 and won the ODI series 2–0 after the third match finished as a no result.[2] It was Pakistan's first ODI series win in two years.[3] Pakistan ODI captain Azhar Ali said "it's been an exciting and emotional series for many reasons. It became important for us, as many of us never played in Pakistan, and winning makes it more significant because it gives you confidence".[4]
